A Pair of MitrenS.

A good story is told on dry goods
clerk at one of the largest stores in the
city. A young lady went into the
store recently and left by accident
pair of handsome mittens. The
clerk put them away, not knowing
whose they were. Yesterday another
lady went into the store to buy a pair
of mittens, and not finding any to suit
her, the clerk bethought himself of
the ones he had found and laid away.
The gloves were well made and near
ly new, and he made the lady a pres
ent of them. She took them and de-
parted.
She had been gone from the store
hardly an hour when the owner of the
gloves came in, told one of the boys
she had left a pair of mittens, and
asked him if he had seen anything of
them. He was truthful young man,
and having seen his fellow clerk put
the gloves away, called him and asked
him, in the presence of the lady,
where he had put them. The dapper
young clerk, vino will be known in
this O'er-true tale as Charley, for
short, turned all sorts of colors, and
begged few moments time to think.
Out on the street was the best place
to think, and out he rushed, bent ON
finding the lady to whom he had given
the gloves, and, if possible, reclaim
them. With many bushes and much
laughter he told his story, secured
the gloves and rushed back to the
store, telling the owner ne had placed
the gloves in his overcoat pocket, and
hao that morning left his Overcoat at
home.
Of course he thinks the affair is q
profound secret, and will tear his hair
when he sees this item.

Cigarette Smoking.

A young man recently died in New
York, presumably from the effects of
cigarette smoking. The evil effects of
such habit are we'll known to physi-
clans, but, Notwithstanding the warn
ings that have been published, the
habit seems to be spreading, not only
among young boys, but also among
men of ripper years whom one would
think had better sense. People who
smoke cigarettes do more smoking
than those who use cigars or a pipe.
They inhale the smoke, which is
charged with nicotine, and this lodges
on the lungs. The fresh air which is
beneficial to the human system is ex-
cluded, and the blood becomes poi
soned. The poison reaches the heart,
as it did in the case of this young man.
and the cigarette smoker in time has
heart disease, which ultimately results
in death. Some suppose that the
paper wrappings of cigarettes do the
mischief, but such is not the case. The
paper may contain poison, but this
poison is not as dangerous as the nico-
tine. 1t would be blessing to human
ity if some law were passed to suppress
the manufacture of the deadly cigar

The Lucky Mines Booming.

Secretary Hansberger, of the Lucky
Mining and Prospecting company,
yesterday received word that the
miners had started drift at depth
of one hundred feet, and
were now taking out ton and u
half of ore per day This is first-rate
news for the stockholders of the
Lucky. who sre thus assured of large
dividends. With 5000 pounds of
almost pure metal coming out daily,
and the prospect of an early increase
in this amount, the property of the
Lucky company is on boon.

DENTAL DISEASES.
An English View on q Theory Advanced By
an American Authority.

an american AutnOrftys
An article recently published in an
evening contemporary very properly
criticises the theory started in an Amer.
lean dental journal that vegetarian diet
would, if universally adopted, produce
an edentulous condition of the jaws in
the course of few generations, utterly
regardless of the fact that vegetarian
races have magnificent teeth. The
pathology of this condition is stated to
be disuse and consequent atrophy of
muscles and jaws, then degeneration,
and ultimately suppression of the teeth
entirely. That comparatively little
employment of teeth has something to
do with their degeneration in civilized
nations admits of no doubt; but how
many thousand years must it take to
make man edentulous when there are
SO few evidences of tendency in that
direction. The wisdom teeth are said
to be disappearing because they are so
often ill-developed, and frequently
never erupted, and the same remark
may sometimes be applied to the upper
lateral incisors; but many Egypt
ian mummies and Etruscan skulls
two thousand years ago exhibit the
same conditions, yet there is no race of
man edentulous. 'Are the teeth of
the present century worse than those
of the last?' is a question by no means
easily answered, for we have only gen.
eral observations, and no statistics to
60 by. Dental surgery is modern
art, and too much separated from its
parents-medicine and surgery-to sat-
isfactorily decide the question. More
over, dentists only see those people
who have defective teeth. Again, much
more Importance is attached to teeth
than in former days, and they conse-
quently receive more attention. 1t has
often been pointed out that the vast
improvements in medical and surgical
treatment serve to keep alive number
of weaklings who would otherwise have
died, and these often have a progenity
of similar frailty, whose teeth we may
legitimately conclude partake of the
general infirmity. On the other hand,
dental disease, if early treated, as is
now done, may be to a great extent
stamped out Of course, the teeth of
civilized nations are worse than those
of savages, although those of the latter
are by no means free from disease

Where We Get EPSON Salts.

EPSON salt is the name given in
pharmacy to the hydrated sulphate of
magnesia. which was obtained over
two hundred years ago by evaporating
the waters of some mineral springs at
EPSON, England. Sea water was after
ward found to contain it, the brine re-
naming after the separation of the
common salt consisting of the sulphate
of magnesia and the chlorides of mag
nesium and calcium. 1t was readily
obtained by collecting the first crystals
which formed and washing them with
q strong solution of the same salt An
excellent quality is manufactured at
Baltimore and in this city from the
